Recipe:
Hook: TMC 300, size 4-6
Cone: Tungsten
Thread: Danville, 6/0 color to match body
Wing: Rabbit
Body: Dubbing, special blend, pink girl
|
Step 1.
Slide on the color cone you desire.
|
|
Step 2.
Add some wraps of wire and snug it up against the cone.
|
|
Step 3.
Repeat the same step you do with the DW.
|
|
Step 4.
You’ll also repeat the dubbing loop like you do on most of all my flies you see here on the site. Wrap it up, but leave a little room behind the cone.
|
|
Step 6.
Fold over the rabbit hide and tie it down. Trim the excess off.
|
|
Step 7.
Tie in a pink grizzly hackle. Make sure it’s webby hackle.
|
|
Step 8.
Wrap it all the way until you don’t have any hackle to wrap. Cut the excess and whip finish the fly. Glue up inside of the cone.
